A social pottery workshop for ten local men that either work, own businesses or are in some way connected to Norwood Road. They included my local green grocer, builder, carpenter, filmmaker, photographer, shopkeeper, potter and my daughter’s hairdresser.

Norwood Road is currently in the process of planning for a large development that will turn the road into a high street with a new supermarket. Most of the small business that are located on the road will have to either close down or relocate.

The pottery workshop was an opportunity to bring together a diverse group of local people to discuss the future development of Norwood Road and to engage in a delicate activity that involved throwing lots of clay.
